2010 Cars coming out
Well today I saw some newer cars i'd never seen before in person
2010 Mustang was the first of the day, it was silver
thoughts: I didnt like it, it looked like the older mustangs, chunkier younger brother. The hood looked too fat and im not a fan of the tail lights..
Definitely looks WAY better in the pictures (notice most companies give it 'the angles')
Also looked like it was TRYING to look like the new camaro, in a mustang ay
2010 Z4, was in black
thoughts: I thought it looked "sleek" i didnt get to see the back, but from the front, for some reason the hood looked similar to a turtle shell?
Just what came to mind, I did like this car though
2010 SS Camaro, was in silver
thoughts: Looked huge.. just huge sitting behind it, i couldnt get myself to think that it was actually really fast..
however from the front.. it looked SOOOOO mean, i love the front end
i didnt get to hear any of these cars unfortunately
Anyways, thought it was interesting to see so many newer cars i had only read about before all in the same day

I like the new Mustangs. Looks sharp, and their turn signal is pretty cool too.
Ford is doing great these days.
Interiors in the newer Fords/Lincolns are pretty good, IMO.
I'd definitely rock a Shelby GT500 if I had the $$

This month's road and track road-tested both the new Z4 and the new Boxster, but made a point to put them in different articles so as not to humiliate the BMW!
The new twin-clutch direct-injection Boxster S runs the quarter mile in the mid-12s, is significantly faster in every dynamic test (slalom, skidpad, braking) has just as much room as the Z4, gets as good or better gas mileage, and is within ten percent of the BMW's price tag.

I just had an experience with a 2010 Mustang.
I had one as a rental over the last week or so. Put on about a thousand miles..
1) I am not a big fan of mustangs generally, but it has a pretty clean look, the front end definitely looks agressive.
2) Interior- impressed. I have been in the older mustangs and this interior was very nice. I had the premium edition V-6 with the brown leather interior/sync/ect.. and I have to say, it is very nice. Very comfy on long drives and alot of options considering its pricepoint.
3) Handling- this i found suprising. This car actually handles pretty well. I was suprised that I was able to feel confident driving this into corners, with the live rear axle and all. Steering feel is still a bit numb, but it feels steady and accurate.
4) Gas mileage- I averaged 25.4 mpg in mixed driving. That's not half bad.. The auto tranny sometimes hunts for the right gears and when you step on it, that engine makes WAY to much noise, but overall, not half bad..
